If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me:
If I regard iniquity in my heart the Lord will not hear me - rather 'If I had regarded iniquity in my heart, the Lord would not have heard me' (Job 35:12; Isaiah 1:15; Isaiah 59:2; John 9:31; 1 John 3:22). Integrity of aim, with purity as to secret or open sin and habitual hypocrisy, not absolute sinlessness, is meant.
Verse Psalms 66:18. _IF I REGARD INIQUITY IN MY HEART_] "If I have seen (ראיתי _raithi_) iniquity in my heart," if I have known it was there, and _encouraged_ it; if I _pretended_ to be what I _was n...
